HiveUAV Information

Hive is a mobile solution for the remote operation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones). As UAV technology improves at a rapid rate, they are becoming more common for use in many applications including monitoring of crops, livestock and wild animals in farming, fire monitoring, search and rescue and operation planning in emergency services and surveying, inspection and progress reporting in mining and construction. UAVs are beneficial in these applications as they enable gathering of data and imagery within a short space of time, help increase productivity, improve planning and reduce costs. The major challenge for existing multi rotor UAVs in these applications is their short flight time and requirement for manual labour to operate. This renders them unusable for remote monitoring applications and continuous coverage over large areas. Hive is a solution that will enable automated take-off, landing, data transfer and charging that can be located just about anywhere. The vision for the HiveUAV solution is to enable UAVs to fly autonomously and complete missions on a large scale. HiveUAV is a business that is focused on enabling future UAV solutions to help industries today.
